Catastrophy

I must need a lot of practice with collider on Arakune because I just get hit out of it all the time. I think in general I just have to learn to release earlier.

Wait I thought throws didn't scale? Part of the techable trade off...

Not an important question to include in this guide, but I was wondering how (in a casual match) one might use his AH? Some of the AHs in this game are comboable, but unfortunately this one triggers a RC if you try to combo it. Can you delay long enough after the stagger from a CH Sledge B to "combo" it? Any other ideas?

Yeah for 50% heat he should get a better CA. IMO everyone's should be a throw like Arakune's.

Sledge B comes out really slow so you would get hit on startup when you landed.

How do you know when it's best to sledge or XYH?

Sledge B helps me get in range but once the Nu starts figuring out how good 6C is I start getting shoved across the screen. I usually win if I get a 720 anywhere in the match but that's not against good Nu's. I know the matchup is supposed to be ugly but can anyone offer this weak American some real Soviet tips?

Ok that is how a combo video should look. Show the combo, then do it in slow motion and describe in detail the quirks of the combo. Nice job. I hope you have more to come

Hopefully the tuts on the LE DVD have good ones because having a visual makes it even easier to know the timing.

Any tips on the best time to start buffering the 720 off a throw? I don't play grapplers so I was discouraged to find out I have to do a grappler command for the rare AH.
